<p>Description</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>delete-local-instance</code> subcommand deletes a \{product---name}
instance on the machine where the subcommand is run. This subcommand
does not require the Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) remote
protocol or secure shell (SSH) to be configured. You must run this
command from the machine where the instance resides.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The subcommand can delete any \{product---name} instance, regardless of
how the instance was created. For example, this subcommand can delete an
instance that was created by using the
<a href="create-instance.html#create-instance-1"><code>create-instance</code>(1)</a>
subcommand.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The instance that is being deleted must not be running. Otherwise, an
error occurs.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The subcommand deletes an instance by performing the following actions:</p>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Removing the instance from the configuration of the domain
administration server (DAS)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Deleting the instance&#8217;s files from file system</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If the instance that is being deleted is the only instance that is using
the node directory, that directory is also removed.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If a standalone instance is deleted, the instance&#8217;s standalone
configuration is also deleted. A standalone instance refers to a
configuration that is named instance-name`-config` to which no other
clusters or unclustered instances refer.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>delete-local-instance</code> subcommand does not contact the DAS to
determine the node on which the instance resides. To determine the node
on which the instance resides, the subcommand searches the directory
that contains the node directories. If multiple node directories exist,
the node must be specified as an option of the subcommand.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If no operand is specified and only one instance resides on the
specified node, the subcommand deletes the instance. If no operand is
specified and multiple instances reside on the node, an error occurs.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.</p>
